Brighter Days Family Grief Center’s annual “Brighter Nights” Gala promises to be an unforgettable evening of hope, remembrance, and connection. On Saturday, December 13th, 2025, we invite you to join us at the elegant InterContinental Riverfront Hotel in St. Paul for a night that beautifully blends celebration with heartfelt tribute.
The evening begins with a vibrant social hour featuring our signature cocktail and mocktail, followed by a thoughtfully prepared three-course dinner. Live and silent auctions will offer exciting opportunities to support our mission, while the heart of the night lies in the stories shared; testimonials from those whose lives have been transformed by Brighter Days, and reflections on a year of profound impact.
This gathering is more than an event, it is a chance to honor your loved one during a season that holds both joy and tenderness. Throughout the venue, guests will encounter heartfelt moments of remembrance, each one a reflection of the compassion and intentional care that define the heart behind the mission of Brighter Days.
One of the most cherished traditions of the evening is wearing a memento that carries your loved one’s spirit: a favorite tie, a beloved scarf, a sparkling pin, or the scent of their favorite perfume. However you choose to bring them with you, their presence will be felt and we hope it ignites thoughtful conversation in a space that welcomes you to talk about your loved one.
Special thanks to our presenting sponsor and cherished community partner, Bryce's Blessings, whose continued support of our mission is a testament of their love for their beloved son, Bryce Borca.
We look forward to welcoming you to a night that celebrates love, legacy, and the enduring light of community.
